We began an new endeavour today- Alpha Art! The book club girl tribe has begun new art adventures together. We bought special stockmar crayons and sketch pads to begin a new class that has a story and art work to do for every letter of the alphabet. The story involves the letter somehow, and the illustration the girls do in their sketchpad invloves both the letter (which begins each illustration) and the story! They are learning about colour theory, composition and this is also reinforcing K's letter formation. (Oh and the stories are all pretty cool too!)
Thanks to Tia Justyn for including the rest of the girl tribe in her enthusiasm!
We got back into the swing of regular Girl Scout meetings again today, learning a little about safety in a try it badge. After the meeting K and F were desperate to sell some Girl Scout cookies, so despite the rain we walked along the business strip in Irvington selling cookies. : )
